Overview
- At a White House donor dinner, the president displayed renderings and small, medium and large models of the monument, with similar models previously seen on his Oval Office desk.
- The proposed site is Memorial Circle on the Arlington, Virginia side of the Arlington Memorial Bridge, oriented toward the National Mall.
- Harrison Design partner Nicolas Leo Charbonneau posted a matching watercolor rendering that Trump shared on social media.
- Trump suggested leftover private donations from the new White House ballroom could help fund the arch, but he offered no overall cost or timeline.
- The project is being floated for America250 and is widely nicknamed the “Arc de Trump,” while its formal name, permitting process, and permanence remain undecided.
